Page Number: 3 Question 2 Type: MCSA The student nurse asks the nursing instructor why he needs to take anatomy and physiology, as well as microbiology, when he only wants to learn about pharmacology. What is the best response by the instructor? 1. "Because pharmacology is an outgrowth of those subjects." 2. "You must learn all, since those subjects, as well as pharmacology, are part of the curriculum." 3. "Knowledge of all those subjects will prepare you to provide the best patient care, including the administration of medications." 4. "Because an understanding of those subjects is essential to understanding pharmacology." Correct Answer: 4 Rationale 1: Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology, but this is not the most complete reason for the nurse to learn them. Rationale 2: The nurse must learn anatomy, physiology, and microbiology to understand pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum. Rationale 3: Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology prepares the nurse to understand pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of medications. Exam 1 CHPT 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12, 13, 20, 21 Rationale 4: It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences in order to learn pharmacology. Global Rationale: It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences in order to learn pharmacology. The nurse must learn anatomy, physiology, and microbiology to understand pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum. Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology, but this is not the reason for the nurse to learn them. Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology prepares the nurse to understand pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of medications.

The current focus is pharmacology and therapeutics. The nursing instructor determines that learning has occurred when the students make which comments? Note: Credit will be given only if all correct choices and no incorrect choices are selected. Standard Text: Select all that apply. 1. "Pharmacology is the development of medicines." 2. "Pharmacology is the study of medicines." Exam 1 CHPT 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12, 13, 20, 21 3. "Therapeutics relates to drug use to treat suffering." 4. "Therapeutics is the study of drug interactions." 5. "Pharmacology is the study of drugs to prevent disease." Correct Answer: 2,3,5 Rationale 1: Pharmacology is not the development of medicines Rationale 2: Pharmacology is the study of medicines. Rationale 3: Therapeutics is the use of drugs in the treatment of suffering. Rationale 4: Therapeutics is not related to study of drug interactions. Rationale 5: Pharmacotherapy is the application of drugs for the purpose of disease prevention. Global Rationale: Pharmacology is the study of medicines and the use of drugs to relieve suffering. Therapeutics is the study of disease prevention and treatment of suffering. Pharmacotherapy is the application of drugs for the purpose of disease prevention.

Page Number: 4 Question 5 Type: MCSA Exam 1 CHPT 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12, 13, 20, 21 The older adult client has gastrointestinal bleeding. The client says to the nurse, "I don't understand this. All I did was take ibuprofen (Advil) for my arthritis." Which plan would be best as it relates to the nurse's education of this client? 1. A plan to teach the client to use drugs that bypass the gastrointestinal system, like topical drugs 2. A plan to teach the client to substitute safer drugs like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 3. A plan to teach the client to obtain physician approval prior to the use of over-the-counter (OTC) medications 4. A plan to teach the advantages and disadvantages of ibuprofen (Advil) Correct Answer: 4 Rationale 1: The use of topical drugs may be an option, but the drug a client needs may not be available in this form. Rationale 2: Substitution of other drugs may be beneficial, but this cannot be done in all situations. Rationale 3: It is not a realistic plan to expect clients to contact their physician prior to taking any over-the-counter (OTC) medication. Rationale 4: Since elderly clients account for the use of about 40% of all over-the-counter (OTC) medications, it is essential for the nurse to teach clients about the advantages, and the disadvantages, of these medications. Global Rationale: Since older adult clients account for the use of about 40% of all over-thecounter (OTC) medications, it is essential for the nurse to teach clients about the advantages, and the disadvantages, of these medications. Substitution of other drugs may be beneficial, but this cannot be done in all situations. The use of topical drugs may be an option, but the drug a client needs may not be available in this form.
